Ken Mellish emphasizes, "we selected weanlings from strong mare lines by stallions of international quality, always keeping rideability at the top of our list … fortunately we were able to find fillies sired by such outstanding stallions as Jazz, Welt Hit II, Idocus, Floristan and Quattro" …

Subsequently in 2003 and 2004, New Perth Farms imported twelve more weanlings including four colts (one by Quattro). The fillies selected were once again chosen on the basis of superior breeding lines featuring such sires as Jet Set, Gribaldi, Cocktail, Fairplay, Timeless, Burrgraaf, and Tango. During all of the trips to the Netherlans, New Perth Farms relied on the advice of Team Nijhof and Quality Horses both experienced stallion owners who located superior young stock and provided valuable insight. During their last trip to the Netherlands in 2004, New Perth Farms sought out and examined potential sires for their broodmares.
